Today is the seventh day of Hydrocephalus Awareness Month and I would like to tell a little about what I had to go through growing up. Although, I feel that the best way to do that for the most part, is to share my senior project video with all of you that I had to do in order to graduate high school. This video is something I did in 2013. I wanted others to know they were not alone. I would like to share my video with all of you now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slezNrN6jLs&t=28s I hope that as you watch this video today or this evening, that you'll learn from it and maybe even be inspired by it too. I hope that as I share something different with you each day that you'll learn what people like me go through. I would like to share one more thing with all of you, which is a photo with a fact on Hydrocephalus. This month is so important, and it's not something that should be tossed aside or forgotten. This month is something that is so important to know about because it's like I've mentioned in previous posts. If no one educates people then who will let others know? Well the answer to that question, would be no one would, and if no one did, then no one would want to learn about it. If no one wanted to learn about it, then that means it continues to be an uncommon and unknown, along with rare condition that isn't like those with other conditions or illnesses that people can see. We need to let others and help them know that Hydrocephalus is real and it very much exists if you can't see it. September is Hydrocephalus Awareness Month and It Matters. Do you see the percentage in this photo I've also shared with all of you? Think of that for a moment. Think of how a baby who could seem perfectly fine, could go through something like that. Think of how the parents of that baby who is innocent, and not knowing yet the condition they are going to live with, because of no cure for it. Well Hydrocephalus Awareness Month is more than just spreading awareness to me, it's important because I'm living with it, and because of that, I want people like you to be educated about it and not think that it is something you need to be worried about catching because some people think that other things like asthma would be contagious but I want to assure you that neither of the two are. Well, until tomorrow, I hope that my video helps you if you're a parent, or not and I hope the photo helps educate you. No one is alone in this, and everyone will help support one another no matter what.
